A photon and an electron have energy 200 eV each. Which one of these has greater de-Broglie wavelength ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine which has a greater de-Broglie wavelength between a photon and an electron, both having an energy of 200 eV, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the de-Broglie wavelength formula The de-Broglie wavelength (λ) is given by the formula: \[ \lambda = \frac{h}{p} \] where \( h \) is Planck's constant and \( p \) is the momentum. ...
